Saturday Science Club for Girls: Chemistry Of Cosmetics

Attention girls in grades 5 through 8... Join us at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center on the second Saturday of each month to investigate exciting science topics.

Each Saturday session will be filled with new challenges, hands-on activities and interaction with local women scientists. Throughout the year, we will explore an array of fields including biology, chemistry, engineering, environmental science, physics, robotics and much more!

On December 11, 2010 explore the world of materials science - the science of stuff! Experiment with shrinking plastics and expanding foams. Then, apply what you've learned to design an edible insulator to keep ice cream from melting.
